Well it turns out, the stars of the ITV reality show are banned from appearing.

Bosses at Channel 5 don't want the stars and it's mostly down to politics.

A TV insider has exclusively told Daily Star Online: "The cast of Love Island are banned from Celebrity Big Brother."

They revealed the likes of Olivia Buckland, Katie Salmon and Cara De La Hoyde wouldn't be making their way into the Borehamwood bungalow, because their show is the rival show to Viacom [who own Channel 5] show Ex On The Beach.

To add insult to injury, the ITV gang aren't considered "ratchet" enough for CBB, either – which means "if ghetto and hot s***ty mess had a baby" according to Urban Dictionary.

"They get people from other shows all the time such as TOWIE, I'm a Celeb etc.

"The producers have a very heavy screening process and are picky about who they even let in for a meeting.

The source went on: "The producers want really fiery characters such as Megan McKenna and Stephen Bear.

"They want people to be worth their time.

"They'll only go for MTV, because they're family and they'll be badly behaved."

None of the Love Island cast are interesting enough for CBB.

Zara Holland is insanely overrated on here.
